It doesn't seem like Perry is fixating on the birther issue. It seems like you are fixated on it tonight. Let it go. Don't even mention it on the show. You are making a bigger deal about it then Perry did

You incorrectly assumed that not requiring US citizenship implies that it applies to illegal aliens. It can and should apply to non-US citizens who are legal residents and as such enjoy the full benefits, privileges and obligations of citizens except voting rights and in some cases running for public office. They pay taxes too!

And they are legally entitled the health coverage. That is why you can not use US citizenship as a condition, rather than permanent resident status.

Playing Politics. President blames GOP ? He had super majority form 2008 to 2010. Now blaming GOP and congress. Thought congress is 3 branches goverment. Republicans have majority of house, Demorcats have majority in Senate and have Executive branch, so why is it blame on the GOP

There was a blind sight in your discussions with your guests. There are a large number of legal immigrants, like PhD scientists, who are not US citizens yet. If someone is not a US citizen, he is not necessarily an illegal immigrant. Your program sounded that one must be an illegal immigrant if he is not a US citizen. There are tens of thousands of hi-tech workers who work legally and pay taxes, but are not US citizens yet.
